Hi everyone, I’m working with Dawn and I’m facing a problem with the announcement / header on the policy pages. There is so much whitespace when the announcement bar is enabled, when I disable it, the whitespace shrinks. Does anyone have a solution for this?
Topic summary
Main issue: On a Shopify “Dawn” theme, the announcement bar (top notification strip) creates excessive whitespace on policy pages. Disabling the announcement bar reduces the whitespace.
What was done: Helpers requested the store URL and temporary password to test. Multiple reviewers checked several pages and could not reproduce the spacing issue on their end.
Findings: Reviewers suggested it is likely a browser-specific issue on the original poster’s side. The poster acknowledged this possibility.
Proposed fix: Another participant suggested adding a Custom CSS snippet: body { min-height: auto !important; }.
Latest update: After applying the CSS, the poster reported a changed layout (shown in a new screenshot). The exact improvement or regression wasn’t described in text; the image is central to interpreting the result.
Status: No confirmed resolution. The issue appears browser-dependent for the OP, while others cannot reproduce. Open questions: whether the CSS change is desirable across pages/devices, and which browser/environment triggers the extra whitespace.

Hey @rragnars
Welcome to Shopify Community! Can you share your Store URL so I can have a look on it? Also, if you have password enabled then please share the password as well. Your cooperation would be greatly appreciated.
Best Regards,

Hey @rragnars
The issue isn’t happening on my end, are you sure it’s not your browser issue?
